Herd of Swine/MickWest is completely lieing when he says he is not actively engaged in sockpuppetry with the multiple accounts administrators are now aware he is using: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk%3ARlevse#Herd_of_Swine_SSP_case . He has been editing the same Morgellons page nearly-simultaneously both as "Herd of Swine" or "Xsmasher" and using IP 66.194.131.130 . Please run a checkuser to confirm. But, also note the striking similarities in background and interest: both expert at video games, both pushing a ultra-conservative mainstream-medicine POV, both attempting Morgellons-denialsm, saying nearly the same things at the same time. Sometimes one puts forward an issue, then the other provides backup. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:66.194.131.130 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Xsmasher http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/66.194.131.130 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Xsmasher Specifically, Herd of Swine states his position 20:27, 30 October 2006: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=84686895 "vast majority of Doctors who examine people who think they have Morgellons have diagnosed them as delusional" and, "While the opinions of a few (very very few) doctors and scientists are intersting, they need to be portrayed as the fringe opinions that they are. This is not an even divide, it's practically the entire medical profession against a few doctors" 66.194.131.130 in very first edit of Morgellons 21:29, 13 July 2007 : http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=144483814 Most health professionals believe the signs and symptoms of Morgellons disease are caused by another condition, typically mental illness. A few believe Morgellons disease is a specific condition likely to be confirmed by future research. 66.194.131.130's second edit of Morgellons 00:36, 14 July 2007: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=144513453 Introduces a sophisticated concept in the lead, that some dermatologist's "use the term Morgellons disease primarily to establish rapport with patients" in early August Herd of Swine starts to also argue very much to have the same concept as Xsmasher's incorporated in the lead: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=148825643 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=149182135 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=149245505 66.194.131.130's third edit of Morgellons 14:51, 2 August 2007 "Morgellons disease is not a recognized medical diagnosis, and the vast majority of medical professionals' believe that it reflects a well- known psychiatric disorder. Most dermatologists equate it with delusional parasitosis and recommend antipsychotic medication after a careful workup has excluded other causes for skin lesions and itching. A few health professionals are reserving judgment until more is known about the condition." 66.194.131.130's 1st Morgellons talk edit 17:00, 2 August 2007: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=148751338 says "vast majority of MDs (including dermatologists) think it's a psychiatric disorder", and projects an extremely developed POV on the subject that is the same as Herd of Swine's. Later 66.194.131.130's signs with false user name EL in Morgellons talk. Note most of 66.194.131.130's edits are fairly minor except for Morgellons and alternative medicine which is Herd of Swine's main interest , even using http://www.quackwatch.org as a reference. A Morgellons article edit war erupts at the end of July; in response, Xsmasher attempts to portray false additional consensus with Herd of Swine's push towards a narrow "delusional" viewpoint. He starts editing Morgellons on 02:57, 2 August 2007. The only three edits of Morgellons show a very high level of sophistication of knowledge of Morgellons and has a highly developed POV similar to Herd of Swine. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=148636120 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=148914188 http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Morgellons&diff=prev&oldid=148929714 What is very very interesting is that the expertise that Xsmasher shows about game development is on the expert level as Herd of Swine has admitted his is. Most of Xsmasher's other edits are also in the area of Herd of Swine's professed Wikipedia interests.
